Run Jump Elf

Free arcade game. Run and jump. Collect gems/coins. Avoid critters & obstacles.

This is a free side scrolling platformer arcade game where you play an elf who runs and collects game gems (think of them as coins) while navigating platforms (some moving and some have gaps which you have to jump over), and avoiding various enemies and critters. The mechanic is similar to classic video/console games but with simpler controls and simpler game elements. Your player's avatar will automatically run forward and all you need to do is tap on the screen to jump to reach gems/coins, avoid enemies, leap over pitfalls, and stomp on critters. Although some of the critters such as the birds and crabs look cute they will bite if your avatar gets close to them, quick reflexes may be required. If enemy critters get near you, you can avoid them either by jumping over or landing on top of them to "stun" them. Collect as many gems/coins as you can and stun on each level to get better star ratings.

Features:

- Classic horizontal side scroller platform game. You play an elf who likes to run, on an adventure that spans mysterious fantasy worlds. Collect game gems/coins and stomp on enemies.

- Simple touch-screen based control. The game can be played with single touch/tap on touchscreen phone and tablets. Simply tap to make the player jump. Tap longer to jump longer or higher. Tap while in the air to extend the jump. The player's elf will run automatically, but you need to keep him save and prevent it from falling and running into obstacles.

- Jump to reach the coins and avoid critters, such as crabs, birds, UFOs and rolling balls.

- Jump higher to cross pitfalls, some which are wider or shorter.

- Quick reflexes will be helpful in some situations in the harder levels.

- Four colorful worlds to conquer in the elf's adventure. With 7 levels on each world, with varied designs and varied challenges. The levels are free to play, no In App Purchase required.

- Variety of levels with curved platform, moving platforms, pitfalls, hills, etc. The game is rendered in 3D engine and has parallax background, so the visual is pretty interesting.

So you're looking for quick diversion, then checkout this simple platformer game which can be played with simple taps on the screen. Run, jump, collect gems, avoid critters and obstacles.
